【解析】
试题分析:本篇文章主要介绍了美国购物习惯在过去的几十年间所发生的变化。
【1】in 考查介词。本句考查固定短语in the 1900s,意为在20世纪。句意为:在20世纪早期,大多数的美国乡镇和城市就有一条主街。
【2】the 考查冠词。本句考查固定短语in the heart of,意为在…中心。句意为:主街总是在城镇的中心。
【3】for 考查介词。本句考查动词look的搭配,从上文可知人们到街道上来购物,因此他们走进商店主要是为了寻找他们所需要的东西。故填for,构成短语look for,意为寻找。
【4】However 考查副词。根据下文的内容可知,下文介绍了20世纪50年代发生了变化,故有一定的转折关系,因其后有逗号,故填副词,however,意为然而。
【5】few 考查形容词。根据下文的the streets were crowded可知,停车的地方不多,故填few。句意为:太多的车涌入主街而对于购物者而言停车的地方又太少了。
【6】Because 考查连词。根据空格后内容可知,街道上都挤满了。而主句意为:店主们开始注意远离市区的空旷的地方。这两个句子之间存在因果关系,故填because,意为因为。
【7】to 考查非谓语动词。本句考查短语begin to do sth。意为开始做某事,故填to。
【8】what 考查名词性从句。本句考查名词性从句的连接词,本句为表语从句,从句中缺少宾语,故填what。句意为:当美国第一家购物中心建成时,这个空旷的地方就成为了他们想要的样子。
